MONDAY 23 MAY
1966 143rd day - 222 days to come
Called Felicia. Asked her make an appointment with Parker to show
AIRLINE. She called me back. Hank Simmons will be in
N.Y. Wednesday & we have an appointment for 11 A.M. In
evening finished the instructions except for the short game.
Felicia read me the following from a report she received
today from Hallmark:-
NOMINATION & CINEMA:- Like them better each time they play.
SHAPE AND SHATTER:- Out for panel testing but not enough questionnaires
have been returned yet.
RUSTLERS:- working on production problems.
BAFFLE:- panel testing.
NUMBER FOOTBALL & FORMATION:- Good initial reception.
INVASION:- Not reviewed yet.
SIT DOWN AND THINK:- Great potential. Everyone liked it. Could see
why 3M wants it back.
GO, SEE:- Returning. Not enough chance for skill. Bidding too
routine. Felicia & I were both shocked at this.
Felicia said that Ruth's game of LOST CITY was
changed to Daktari (after the T.V. program about
animals in Africa) and was a lot of fun.
One of the inventors of CAMPAIGN (who I met at
Toy Fair) called. He and his partners will be over Friday,
June 3 and will bring me a copy of the game.
Rcd. a letter from Jim Silliman (who had original
ordered a copy of FOCUS). He included an original pencil
& paper game called SQIZZETS.
